1. Contego clear cerakote: extremely well-built, great ergos, great steel, great size, great value
2. The smaller Osbourne design; green with purple liners: extremely well-built, great steel, a little small/refined for my use
3. AFCK: never owned one, but they are sweet- especially the D2 version
 
Right now it is a Ritter mini-grip with Wilkins scales. I'm also really using my BM710. Slim in the pocket with an excellent handle to blade ratio.

Thanks for the lead and the link!

I like several but surprisingly enough my all black Contego is becoming my favorite. My wife says it's scary looking, like something the new Batman would use. Sounds perfect! :P
 
Out of the blue, I am a Benchmade owner. I have a 755 in M390...as of yesterday. Like it a lot. Want an Adamas...and will have it.
 
In approximate order, though it changes from time to time:

Contego
Rukus
Kulgera
Onslaught
Osborne

No black blades or serrations.
 
I have to admit to being a big Adamas fan. I have 2 (black manual and tan auto) and one on the way (Recon1 limited edition). I don't EDC them due to size but I do use them around the house and keep one on the bike for emergencies. Just a solid, solid knife that feels great, is rugged and does what I ask it to do.
 
I like the Osborne 943 in Titanium or Carbon fiber. I alo like the 710 and the Gacho.
